The Sudanese Rapid Support Forces (RSF) on Wednesday accused the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) of bombing the Al-Jaily oil refinery north of the capital Khartoum, completely destroying it. The RSF said the refinery was targeted by airstrikes.
The RSF has controlled the Al-Jaily refinery since the conflict broke out in mid-April. The refinery supplies fuel depots and produces about 70% of the country’s needs.
The Sudanese army has not yet commented on the accusations. However, the two sides have repeatedly traded blame for the destruction of infrastructure and civilian casualties.
In a statement on Twitter, the RSF condemned the “barbaric acts” of the “remnants of the isolated regime and its supporters,” which it said violate international law, including the Geneva Conventions and the Jeddah Declaration.
“The systematic destruction of public facilities and vital infrastructure confirms, in a clear and decisive way, that this corrupt junta is targeting, first and foremost, the Sudanese people in their resources and property,” the RSF said.
“We are exposing these crimes to the Burhan militia and the terrorist battalions of the former regime, in order to put the international and regional community before its responsibilities to condemn these ongoing crimes against the Sudanese people,” the RSF added.
